Happy Birthday Kallie!

Woo hoo!  I am now 32.  No day off for the birthday girl - I headed to work!
 Here's what I push to the car each day.  Max in the stroller, diaper bag on one handle, pump bag on the other handle, laptop bag in the basket under the car seat.


 My sweet perfect husband sent me flowers at work - he knows so well what I love.
 Brittany had In-n-Out waiting for me at lunch.  YUMMY!
She gave me this awesome baby food recipe book.  You'll see more of this in the future.
 Max showing off his drumming skills.
 My team did cake and sang happy birthday to me.  I chose a Red Velvet and Marble cake from Nothing Bundt Cakes.  Ridiculously good.  My mouth is water just thinking about it.
 Peter had presents for me when I got home from work.  Max helped me open them.
 He was sorta into it.
What?  Peter!  You shouldn't have!  You are such a generous husband.
He gave me the super nice Canon Rebel.  Look for some better quality pictures on future blogs - wahoo!
Checking out the new camera's ability.  Yup - pretty good.  It captured how cute Peter is.

We went and picked up Panda  Express for dinner - - no cooking for me!


Video - So Max has this new awful habit of grinding his teeth.  It is the most horrible sound.  And I don't know how to make him stop!  Turn your volume up, there's some grinding right at the beginning.

It was a good day but was also a bad day.  Peter did everything he could to make it a special day and I really appreciated that.  However, regardless of that, it was just a bad day.  The entire day it just felt like something was missing and without that, it wasn't going to be a good day.  What was missing?  My mom.  I missed her terribly today.  I felt more alone and abandoned and sad without her than I did on Mother's Day.  There was no birthday card in the mail.  There were no presents in the mail.  There wasn't a phone call from her.  It just sucked.  I miss my mom.
